Technological Advancement in Radiation Oncology Bolsters Middle East & Africa Radiation Oncology Market



Radiotherapy focuses on destroying the cancerous cells maximum sparing of healthy cells which was achieved over the period of time owing to the advancement in imaging technology such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET) and others. These imaging technologies helps in identifying the tumors cells along with its exact position and size which led to the development of 3D conformal radiotherapy. Over the period of time, there is constant development in radiotherapy technologies as mentioned below

Flash Therapy: It is being discussed among healthcare professionals, rather than days or weeks the entire dose of massive radiation is delivered at once very quickly. The healthy cells recover well over the period of time and killing only cancer cells. It is under study and if it proves to be safe and effective it can be revolutionary radiation therapy in coming years.

Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT): This technology allows for real-time imaging of the tumor and surrounding healthy tissue before each treatment session, ensuring that the radiation beams are accurately targeted at the tumor and minimizing damage to nearby organs.

Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT): IMRT allows for the delivery of varying intensities of radiation to different parts of the tumor, allowing for better dose distribution and sparing of healthy tissue.

Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT): This technology delivers high doses of radiation to small, well-defined tumors in a limited number of treatment sessions, leading to better local control of the tumor.

Proton therapy: Proton therapy uses protons instead of traditional X-rays to deliver radiation to the tumor, allowing for more precise targeting of the tumor and sparing of healthy tissue.

Adaptive radiation therapy: This technology allows for adjustments to the treatment plan based on changes in the tumor size or position during the course of treatment, ensuring that the radiation dose is always optimized for maximum effectiveness.

Moreover, increasing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in cancer treatment for treatment planning, labelling anatomy patient CT scan images, and others. AI will help to cater to the patient's requirements instantly by offering required solutions during the course of treatment. Additionally, various radiation therapy equipment is integrated with AI which will benefit the patient and healthcare professional both. For Instance, In May 2024, Elekta launched its latest linear accelerator (linac), Evo, a CT-Linac with new high-definition AI enhanced imaging, capable of delivering offline and online adaptive radiation therapy as well as improved standard image-guided radiation therapy treatments. Therefore, development in radiotherapy technologies and increasing integration of artificial intelligence is expected to expedite the radiation oncology market growth in coming years.

Middle East & Africa Radiation Oncology Market Overview



Over the past 50 years, Saudi Arabia has pioneered cancer care services in the Gulf region through several significant accomplishments. Progress in various cancer treatment areas aligns with its Vision 2030. Currently, Saudi Arabia has ~60 licensed radiation oncologists or clinical oncologists for treating patients with radiation therapy. The Saudi Proton Therapy Center at King Fahad Medical City in Riyadh became the first proton therapy facility in the Kingdom and the Arab world. The Saudi Fund for Development (SFD) opened the Saudi Radiotherapy Center for Cancer Patients at King Abdullah University Hospital in the northern Jordanian city of Ar-Ramtha in July 2021. This center helps over 1,200 cancer patients every year by providing essential services and enhancing healthcare in the northern part of Jordan.
